Bed sheet was dirty, asked house keeping for new one and was given a thin hospital like blanket to sleep with. There was stains on the walls and the stair wells were filthy. The pool was nice, but the gym wasnt kept clean there was multiple cups left and not picked up from the night prior.

Room was clean and the beds were comfortable. What we dont like was, no sugar/creamer packets in the room nor facial tissue. The front desk said they're running low on facial tissue and will get one from empty room. For a big hotel, i think it is strange to run out of supplies.

I liked that the property had a lovely walking trail around a pond located behind it. The staff were helpful and friendly. What I didn't like was that there was no hot tub at the pool, we had a room without a tub so were able to get one that did. By booking through expedia we didn't receive maid service or our breakfasts included. This should be something that is explicitly told to customers. before their booking a room with expedia. Each room should also have a microwave.

If it wasn’t for Josh at the front desk going above and beyond we would have left day of check in..as for the room there was a certain door that didn’t leave and an access door to the outside that was sealed up. But to top it all off on the last morning before check out there was an earwig crawling across the ceiling… I will never stay at this hotel again. There are other hotels in the area for around the same price that are much better quality for what I paid.
